Magnetogravity wave

A magnetogravity wave is a type of plasma wave. A magnetogravity wave is an acoustic gravity wave which is associated with fluctuations in the background magnetic field.[1] In this context, gravity wave refers to a classical fluid wave, and is completely unrelated to the relativistic gravitational wave.

This article is about acoustic waves in plasma. For the gravitational analog of electromagnetism, see Gravitoelectromagnetism.

Examples

Magnetogravity waves are found in the corona of the Sun.

gollark: Yep!
gollark: If they got it through my bot, they could probably use that to generate another one too, or just directly abuse that.
gollark: As I said: if someone got the webhook URL *via Discord*, they could do it again.
gollark: Potentially!
gollark: Of course, if they can read the webhook URL they can most likely create new ones.
